HTML codes for characters and symbols
In web design, characters and symbols that are not keyable via a standard keyboard require special html codes or ascii codes in order to display them on a web page. And, in other situations, certain symbols such as a forward slash /, quotation mark “, pound sign # and many others, are used in web programming, and keying such characters in a web page can break the web design code. Therefore such characters must be represented in text by an html or ascii code instead of the actual key character. The table below is useful list of various HTML and ascii codes for various special characters.
